Removing corn kernels from the cob can be messy—they like to bounce off the cutting bard and end up scattered all over the counter and floor.

Make it Easy: To keep those kernels in their place, insert the tip of the ear of corn into the center hole of a Bundt pan. Cut the kernels away from the cob in long downward strokes, letting them fall into the pan.
